With so many households on the verge of or becoming homeless the Coalition strengthened, expanded and invested additional resources into its commitment to prevention, meeting immediate needs and long term systemic change. Key achievements last year include:
Goals for the coming year include:
This past year, as with the past three years, the Coalition has seen firsthand the escalating number of families and individuals falling into poverty, putting many of them on the brink of or sliding into homelessness.
Over this past year, the impact of escalating homelessness has led to the temporary loss of many of these types of fond memories for families. As the economy slowly recovers, its wake has left thousands of households living in poverty in our state. Many of these households live on the verge of homelessness and many more have become homeless mainly because they are too poor to pay sky-rocketing rents. Even more are unable to afford the basics of daily life – clothing, food and beds for their children.
Since its inception over 30 years ago, the Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless has been helping families and individuals across the state to avoid or escape homelessness as well as meeting immediate needs. Today sadly, the demand for the Coalition’s assistance has never been greater. In just the past twelve months, requests for help have risen by over 50%. During these challenging times, the Coalition has continued to dedicate itself to working on effective solutions for preventing homelessness and stabilizing those who are housed.
Almost 20 years later as the President of the Board, I share with them the same passion and commitment for our work. The Coalition has grown into an even stronger non-profit with resilient financial stability, an extensive network, and an a sensitivity for creating innovative solutions. Our strong Committee structure has led the Board to govern responsibly yet openly. Our small staff continues to stretch their minds, hearts and energy to deliver services that reflect the compassion and collaborative spirit that I saw in them in our TV studios. I am particularly proud that the agency has maintained rigorous financial monitoring and decision making coupled with a diverse fundraising strategy that has led us to weather purchasing a new building, physically moving the office and warehouse, and the unpredictability that we all are living with today.
It is clear to me that the strength of our agency lies in the leadership of its management team and their longtime loyalty to the Coalition and its mission. The belief it has held since its inception to see where the greatest good can be done and to achieve meaningful outcomes by collaborating in the community continues to lead the Coalition. Today, we are well positioned to provide necessary services that will assist our neighbors in need in ways that will truly make a difference in their lives.

The Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless is a statewide organization. Some programs focus on providing services to specific communities serving low-income families, children and individuals.

As part of the Coalition’s work with public schools to assist at-risk families of their students to avoid becoming homeless, the agency has been able to help many parents who need assistance with material items such as clothing, food and household furniture. When advocates learned that many of the students in the schools did not have a bed and were sleeping on the floor or with a sibling, they became concerned that the students' learning ability was being needlessly compromised without a good night sleep. In response, the agency created A Bed for Every Child Initiative to secure and distribute a twin mattress, frame and bed linens to students who do not have one of their own that are referred by our school partners.

|
Program Long-Term Success | The long term goal is to raise sufficient financial support to distribute 1,500 twin beds and bed linens to children living in poverty without a bed of their own who attend public school. Additionally, we aim to expand to additional public schools throughoutMassachusettsthat are located in communities with high levels of poverty. |
Program Success Monitored By | The Initiative can not be a true success until it is able to raise $410,000 annually which will enable it to distribute 1,500 beds to children living in poverty without a bed of their own. Until that time, as financial support is raised, beds are purchased and distributed immediately to children who have been referred. At any given time there is a waiting list of children in need that have been referred. An additional way to measure success is the ability of the Initiative to expand to additional new communities. |
Examples of Program Success | Working in partnership with the LynnPublic Schools, the Initiative was able to distribute over 400 beds in twelve months. One of the students that was able to benefit was Miguel who was in second grade full of energy and ready to learn. Shortly after returning from school vacation in February, Miguel’s teacher began to notice that he was coming to school tired and not acting as himself. At first his teacher thought it was the transition back to school from vacation, but learned that he has sleeping on the floor. Miguel’s family struggled with bed bugs, and before the landlord would exterminate, they had to get rid of their mattresses. Without the financial resources to purchase new beds, Miguel’s mom was forced to have her sons sleep on the floor of their bedroom. Miguel’s teacher was able to make a referral for beds. Tonight, Miguel and his brother sleep comfortably and share their new bunk beds. Miguel has claimed the top as his. |
For the past 27 years, the Coalition has been helping families and individuals to furnish their future through its Furniture Bank. The Furniture Bank has a simple but important mission to ensure that households transitioning from homelessness into permanent housing have access to cost free furniture and household items to help rebuild their homes and lives. Since its inception, it has furnished over 55,000 homes. It traces its beginnings to work that the Coalition was undertaking in family shelters when a mother asked an advocate if there was any place like a food bank that gave out furniture instead. It was then that the Furniture Bank was conceived and began working on a simple two prong business model – partnering with generous community businesses and individual residences to secure gently used furniture and household goods and then working with a network of non-profits to indentify households transitioning into housing who are in need of assistance.

Program Short-Term Success | The Furniture Bank’s short term goal is to ensure that there is a place for low income households to access cost free material items to furnish their new apartment, to stabilize their housing, and improve their quality of life. It will do this by:
|
Program Long-Term Success | The ultimate goal of the Furniture Bank is to meet the immediate needs of low-income and homeless families and individuals. It will work to find creative and efficient ways to solicit and distribute the basics that make an apartment a home. The Furniture Bank is a critical resource to support low-income and homeless families and individuals as they strive to find stability and self-sufficiency in their lives. Its assistance will increase comfort and a sense of dignity for households re-establishing their homes and their lives, while enhancing the physical and mental well being of homeless children that will provide a basis for a stronger foundation for adult life. The Coalition holds the belief that by offering assistance with the most basic of essentials that make up the fabric of a home, we are ensuring that families, children and individuals will have a solid foundation as they rebuild their lives and home. |
Program Success Monitored By | Each household that requests furniture and household items from the Furniture Bank requires a referral from a social service worker with whom they are working to verify their needs and eligibility. These referrals come from emergency shelters, battered women’s shelters, transitional housing, drop-in centers, hospitals, community health centers, outreach programs, and many other civic organizations. The referral process allows us to collect demographics and other information on households’ housing and income situations that can illustrate results and trends. Data collected is maintained with Utilizing Efforts to Outcomes software, an internet-based case management database designed to measure program outcomes. This allows management to track results and generate monthly reports on outcomes, allowing for timely information on the progress of our goals. We also work with our partners to solicit feedback from them to identify best practices and areas that can better serve their clients.

Examples of Program Success | For Gina and Paul, June 1, 2012 could not come soon enough. After months of living in a family shelter with their two young daughters, moving into their new apartment was a dream come true.
In 2010, Paul lost his sales position due to the sluggish economy. The family was maintaining their housing and keeping up with their expenses through unemployment benefits. Shortly after Paul's unemployment benefits stopped, they were unable to pay their rent. Having no place to turn, they sought shelter. After months of being homeless, Paul was finally able to secure a new job, allowing them to move forward to find housing. While they were homeless, they placed their belongings into storage, but soon were unable to make payments. Because they no longer had any furniture and household items to furnish their new apartment, the shelter they were staying in gave them a referral the Furniture Bank. Today, their apartment is filled with furniture and household items to let them begin their life anew. |
This past year marked the eighth year since the HomeLink Initiative was launched with the goal of assisting families and individuals to avoid homelessness. By partnering with community health centers, public schools, and early intervention programs, HomeLink has brought housing assistance where low-income households were already accessing services. Partnering with existing community based programs has made it possible to reach households facing a housing crisis before it spirals out of control. Since the inception of Homelink, over 7,000 households have received housing assistance. HomeLink continues to build new partnerships with existing community based organizations to reach more households that are facing or in the midst of a housing crisis that without intervention could result in losing their home. |

Program Short-Term Success | Short-term goals for HomeLink include:
|
Program Long-Term Success | The ultimate goals for the HomeLink Initiative is one to create an extensive early warning homeless prevention network that is inter-woven into services within existing non-traditional community base agencies such as schools and community health center so as household are faced with some form of housing issue they will immediately know were they can turn for help. The second goal would be to have the financial resources to have HomeLink networked with all communities inMassachusettsthat report high levels of poverty and homelessness and have onsite advocates within their public schools, community health centers and early intervention providers. |
Program Success Monitored By | Utilizing Efforts to Outcomes software, an internet-based case management database designed to measure program outcomes, HomeLink’s advocates capture results as they occur for each household with which they work. HomeLink’s management team is then able to track results and generate monthly reports on outcomes, allowing for timely information on the progress of our goals. HomeLink also works with our partners to solicit feedback from them to identify trends they may see that could impact our prevention strategy. At the end of our fiscal year the Coalition generates an end of year report on HomeLink that is presented to the agency’s Board of Directors as well as funders. It is our hope that through this form of communication the Coalition will continue to garner broad-based community interest in this prevention model. |
Examples of Program Success | Elvira is a mom of 3 children. Her youngest was born prematurely and receives services from Early Intervention (EI). On a recent visit by the EI physical therapist, Elvira expressed her concern that she might become homeless. At the next home visit a HomeLink Advocate accompanied the EI worker to meet with Elvira and discuss her housing crisis. Elvira showed all of her household bills that included shut off notices for their utilities. HomeLink was able to negotiate with the utility company to ensure the utilities were not shut off and then worked to set up a reasonable payment plan. The advocate also applied the family to SNAP for which they were approved. Once they began to receive aid, the family was able to shift close to $400 per month away from purchasing food and towards paying their monthly household utilities. The Advocate worked to set a manageable monthly household budget that would make it possible for them to remain stably housed. |
Low-income families and individuals who are living with some form of chronic respiratory diagnoses have few resources to improve their home environment to lessen environmental triggers that could improve their quality of life. Sadly, those living in poverty are disproportionately affected by asthma and are more often children. They have excessive exposure to allergens like dust mites, rodent droppings, mold and irritants such as secondhand smoke and air pollution, all of which can worsen asthma. Although we do not yet know how to prevent asthma, we do know that one way to control it is to limit the triggers that cause attacks. For low-income households with chronic asthma, making these necessary changes to their homes is financially out of reach. Room to Breathe will provide cost free air conditioners, new beds, mite proof mattress covers, air purifiers, vacuums with HEPA filters, as well as replacing rugs with Pergo floors in bedrooms when needed, to stabilize home, health and lives.

Program Short-Term Success | Short-Term projected outcomes include:
|
Program Long-Term Success | The long term goal for Room to Breathe is to show that removing triggers that are related to respiratory attacks for low-income households can improve health outcomes and quality of life for those living with chronic respiratory disease. It will also show that making a home a better place to breathe will reduce the number of costly emergency room visits and hospitalizations brought on by attacks. This will be done by:
Demonstrating that assisting low-income households to make their homes environmentally safer is far more cost-effective to the health care system |
Program Success Monitored By | The Room to Breathe Project will evaluate its success through a number of measures. Working together with our community partners, we will collect data on the number of times the child/individual required emergency room visits or hospitalization over a 24 month period. We believe this data will indicate that the frequency of respiratory related emergency room visits and hospitalizations of referred children/individuals will decrease as a result of the intervention taken. Feedback from the household will play an important part in the evaluation of the program. From the initial assessment to the completion of the process, households will be solicited for their feedback. At the completion of making their home a safer environment to live and breathe, we will provide them with an evaluation form. Feedback from these households and our community partners will help shape best practices as the project moves forward with each year. |
Examples of Program Success | The Room to Breathe Initiative is in its first year and data will be added as it becomes available. |
As changes in the economic climate and government policies have increasingly impacted poor people over the past 30 years since the Coalition was created, we have required ourselves to regularly re-assess how we can best assist the growing number of households that must make difficult choices to protect their families and their homes. As poverty has increased in Massachusetts, we have broadened the focus of our programming to more effectively reach and assist low-income and very poor households with an aim to break the cycle of poverty well before it leads to the risk of losing their homes. |

One of the most critical aspects to a non-profit being successful is its ability to maintain a strong financial position. To achieve this, our Board and senior staff undertake comprehensive planning and budgeting, anticipate changes, and adapt thoughtfully as needed. Our Board’s Finance Committee meets monthly to evaluate the status of our finances, external conditions that can impact our financials, and other circumstances that could influence the agency’s decision-making in regards to finances.

The Impact tab is a section on the Giving Common added in October 2013; as such the majority of nonprofits have not yet had the chance to complete this voluntary section. The purpose of the Impact section is to ask five deceptively simple questions that require reflection and promote communication about what really matters – results. The goal is to encourage strategic thinking about how a nonprofit will achieve its goals. The following Impact questions are being completed by nonprofits slowly, thoughtfully and at the right time for their respective organizations to ensure the most accurate information possible.
